Ability to change the message color to be more discreet
Similar to the discreet app icon, which stops being discreet once you open the app, the ability to change the message color from the recognizable yellow color would make it more discreet to respond to messages in public.

FIX MOCK LOCATION
THIS FEATURE WASTES SO MUCH TIME AND REALLY SUCKS BECAUSE IT JUST ALLOWS FOR BAD POOR PEOPLE TO SCAM WESTERNERS.
But you know that bc ur a really crappy Commie BS company spreading disease, psychological harms and ripping off gay men AND WORST OF ALL helping turn all of normal relations into a giant exercise in marketing and sales.
Basically GRINDR is now nothing but an advertising location for scammers and whores.
Oh and you massively violate privacy and charge insane money for the privilege of getting endlessly SCAMMED and defrauded by FRAUDULENT PEOPLE.
There is ZERO. I mean ZERO…

Scam button
Most recently there have been more and more scam artists on Grindr wanting to find people who need help financially with credit card debt or college loan debt when all it is is another one of the gift card scam artists it's ridiculous I fell into one a couple of weeks ago and lost about $5,000 to this jackass who I'm now taking to court. Just wanted to point this out to other guys beware.

Avoid iconography/ labels that indicates drugs/ or sexual services
Determine a component enough capable to identify when a user are using this iconography/ labels and take action (tbd)
The main proposition is to avoid as much as possible profiles that are actually selling drugs and offering sexual services, this are easily identifiable with emojis or specific words,

Nsfw pics "ask first" option
So for NSFW pics options. They aren't specific enough. Like, I want to have an option that says "Ask First". Because people think that "not at first" just means "don't send a dick pic first thing". Like. I want explicit consent options.

Verified users
Social media sites often offer verification to users to ensure authenticity and safety to other users when connecting.
Grindr is often used by people that are closeted, shy and discreet, therefore even a profile that is verified without a picture would increase the chances to users to connect.41 votes -

Mock locations prohibited
Guys please allow the use of mock locations again. If this means we have to verify through a phone number like with scruff then that's fine. I can't date for almost 3 months now via grindr cause you guys are blocking the use of mock locations. I get the whole safety stuff but this is not the way to deal with that. Please guys 💔

DL feature to disable native alert
There should be a switch for “DL” users to disable the native notification alerts and sounds. For instance, when this switch is enabled, the sounds when sending or receiving messages should be the default sounds for your phone, not the Grindr sounds. This can allow very discreet users to have their notifications turned on without worrying about being exposed.
Or there can be radio options in the settings to choose what sounds or ringtone we want for Grindr:
___ Grindr Sounds
x Phone’s Default Sounds
___ Vibrate Only
___ Sound Off4 votes -

Searchable distances you morons in development
Far from a new idea but I don't know any other dating applications that doesn't provide this feature I pay you GOOD HARD EARNED MONEY to never be wrong about these things so tell your management this Karen is coming for them in a bad way soon if you don't reimpliment distance searching. I get matched with people 100, 200, 300 miles from me. Do your employees at Grindr make some sort of kick back from a location service if tou allow them to find me matches 300 miles away? I bet you fucks do.

Disable Grunt
Who the hell thought it was a good idea to make the app give off a full volume sexual grunt when you open it? Without ANY warning. Do y’all realize that in certain areas of the world this could give people away and put them in danger? Not to mention the embarrassment of having your phone make sexual sounds in public. My phone keeps randomly making the grunt sound when it’s locked and I’m not touching it. I first heard it in the middle of the night and let me tell you it is freaking terrifying to be woken up…

Albums
I get that you have chosen to set albums as a premium feature but not all users can afford or want to pay for premium due to how little they use the app.
This I my suggestion: make it possible for free members to have 2 albums, but limit the maximum number of photos to 2-3 for each album or across both albums 5 maximum photos( 2 for 1st album pg only ie: face pics and 3 for 2nd x rated ie: body and private areas. Also screen shot/record protect all albums for free and premium. Then remove the limit…

Distance of users on grid.
Grindr and Lyft need to team up cause nobody has wheels out here in the Midwest. Hookups are too far between each other/aren’t safe parts of Toledo to be in at hookup-hours. That and users could then run up a grindr tab and pay it off by driving other tricks around “appointments”.

Horrible new tap sound
The new sound that you made for taps is horrible. I understand what you’re trying to do but the sound of itself is extremely annoying
